puzzle page in totally inactive.. i dont know but there is some problem with the interface. Try from a different browser. You need to have flash installed ( http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ ). I have deleted your start. Edit : It looks like you have started submitting now |

It seems like ages since I had a really good time of things scoring-wise. Of course, its really early to know just how good it is. |

Great puzzles. Scored some top 3 finishes (thus far ). I think the point system is a bit quirky. We'll see how it works out after the test is done. |

Thanks. |

Thanks. Here is the PB - Link . It is same format as IB (couldn't have made it faster without copy paste ). Also, I have not double checked the solutions. It is password protected, and password is here |

Country : United Kingdom | Nilz posted @ 2012-12-22 8:47 PM The solving interface said that my time taken for all sudokus had just past the 60 minute mark, but it didn't tell me that the time was up. Is this because the total time allowed was 65 minutes (because it included the 5 minutes to read the rules), or because even after the 60 mins was up, you can continue to view the puzzles you didn't get round to solving? At the time, I assumed the latter, so I just stopped solving and skipped to the end. But now I'm thinking that the first explanation might be correct, which means I wasted 3 minutes of potentially valuable solving time. Of course, if that's the case it's my own stupidity, but I think it could've been made a bit clearer.
Anyway, nice test, 30 puzzles in 60 minutes is a tough challenge! Having to solve online made an interesting change- it's harder because you can't make pencil marks, but it's easier because there's no messing about with answer keys. I'm not sure which I prefer. |

Hi Neil, I am not sure how exactly the timer behaved for you. We described some of the technical details earlier here. We did not include the instructions reading time in the 60 minutes. To me, it looks like the score page has a bug, and is not considering your entry which was auto-submitted at the 60 minute mark. The server seems to have received you entries properly.  (Last 3 are submitted after 60 minutes mark ) |

why did the score page limit my time at 50:00 min ? Fixed and you move to 11. Refresh your browser. |
